Musician, playwright, filmmaker, game designer, sword-fighter... also has a job. I wrote a physically distant musical during the pandemic, so that's cool I guess? www.daystreamer.net to watch all the episodes.

You can get physical copies of this??!

I'd like to add being solution oriented. Lots of people campaign on loudly complaining about real problems, and then skip to "therefore elect me", without getting into how they can solve the problems. But he's great at identifying addressable solutions.

Did you have traumatic music lessons as a kid? Then I've been told to recommend NOT watching our latest short horror film...

It would not surprise me at all if the US president next demanded that Canada must now bow out of the world series, with threats about if we don't.

I saw it in theatres, as one of the few Canadians who thinks he's fantastic.

When this happened, my partner immediately switched back to her old pebble. She was super pumped!

Being bipedal is, evolutionarily speaking, brand new. We definitely haven't worked out the bugs on converting a skeleton originally designed to walk on all 4s.

T2 is in the running for best sequel of all time! But after that... H'oh boy!

Given that we've created a world where it is assumed that the results of creative work should simply be available to us, for free, all the time, I think it makes a lot of sense to just pay artists from the societal pool of resources!

Had a great time this weekend filming our entry into the Nickel Independent Film Festival 48 hour horror challenge. We managed to get it done, despite most of our company being in rehearsals for a musical much of the weekend. We're getting more efficient at this! (and our films are looking better!)

Great, give away your only card, in exchange for a promise from a guy who historically consistently gives zero fucks about his promises...

Great fun.

These always seem a bit forgettable after, but damned if I don't have an absolutely fantastic night at the movies while I'm at the theatre seeing them!

The opening 5 minutes of that video is possibly the finest work he's done. Just fantastic analysis.

The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures.

This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech!

www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

e-6695 (Consumer protection)

Keywords
Censorship Credit cards Internet Pornography

E-petition
Initiated by Carmen Tam from Waterloo, Ontario

Original language of petition: English
Petition details
Petition to the House of Commons
Whereas:

Mastercard, Visa, and other payment platforms have been leveraging their power over consumer ability to purchase legal content;
In 2021, Mastercard changed its policies to regulate adult entertainment by preventing the use of its payment platform on numerous adult entertainment sites;
As of July 2025, video game distribution service Steam now cites rule 15, that “adult only” content is not permitted on the platform if it goes against payment processor’s policies. Steam does not describe what content is defined as “adult only”;
As of July 2025, video game distribution website Itch.io has “deindexed” all adult NSFW content from browse and search pages. Users that previously purchased legitimate video games cannot access games that have been removed; and
This has set an unsettling precedent of corporate censorship, causing concern in video game development teams, including developers, voice actors, and artists in other creative fields as their livelihoods are in limbo.

We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to
1. Stop financial discrimination by payment platforms against legal goods and services;
2. Ensure transparency to consumers about content restrictions and the rationale behind them; and
3. Protect creators' rights to make legal adult content and ensure a fair appeals process for any penalized media.

If we're going to claim "guns don't kill people", then the only possible conclusion we can come to is "Americans do".

Ever bean to Lima, Peru?
Garbonzo was the best drummer.
I'm keen on the bean scene.

We need to tax wealth not work.

Why? Because usually no matter how hard you work, the compound interest on huge wealth grows much faster than your wages + the rich use this passive income to buy all the assets.

Someone made a game to show this:
